"It's here", with Shi Duan's greeting, everyone dismounted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Wang An looked up, the plaque of the inn was written with the words "Fulu Inn", and Shi Duan explained: "This is written by an old gentleman, taken from the Book of Songs. ”

Shi Duan pointed to the inn and introduced: "The first floor is a place to eat, and the second floor is a guest room. Are you willing to do it yourself, there is a kitchen in the back, if it is convenient for you to go down to eat, add four wen per person per meal, how about it? Wang An nodded in agreement. Shi Duan rubbed his hands and said, "Can Lang Jun pay for the store for five days first?" Wang An looked at the little fat man, Kong Xun took out a gold cake and handed it to Shi Duan, Shi Duan looked at Wang An in embarrassment: "Is there a copper coin, this is too big for us to find." The eldest girl took out a handful of money and handed it to Shi Duan. Shi Duan happily shouted to the little baby who was standing next to him watching the excitement: "Go and call your uncles and uncles to come out and help carry things." When the little guy heard this, he ran backwards, shouting as he ran, "Uncle and uncle, there are a lot of people coming, come out and help." ”

Wang An and Shi Duan looked at each other, and after a while, a group of people rushed in and shouted: "Who dares to make trouble here, are you impatient?" Shi Duan hurriedly went up to stop him, and after explaining, he realized that there was a misunderstanding.

Shen Tuchen found Wang An and said goodbye to Wang An, he was going to see his father, Wang An did not persuade him, and asked Shi Duan to arrange for someone to take Shen Tuchen to his father. took out a handful of money and asked Shi Duan to buy wine and meat, and everyone gathered together. I heard that there is wine and meat, and those people in the inn are also working under their feet, and they no longer grind. At night, it is really a big piece of meat, a big bowl of wine, Wei Xuan they are the border army of the north, and the Qiang army of Longxi of Shi Duan them, the two sides finally turned into a wine fight, who wins and who loses Wang An doesn't know.

The next day, Wang An woke up after the arrival of the day, took a bath, changed clothes, and then learned that Wei Xuan went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to report for duty. You can't feel it from a distance, and you can feel the majesty of Chang'an City when you get closer. Chang'an City twelve city gates, each city gate three doorways, the middle is for the emperor to travel the gallop road, so only open the left and right two city gates, because can not cross the gallop road, so the city money must know where you want to go there first, otherwise you will take a lot of unjust roads.

went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inform him that he was a candidate for the exam, and soon a small official came out, asked Wang An to untie the knife, and explained some precautions, and then led Wang An in. Wang An lowered his head, carefully followed the little official, and turned around until the little official said, "It's here, this is the office of Dong Cao Peng, and the official will go to Tongbing." Then he took Wang An in, and Dong Cao Peng checked the official documents issued by Nanyang Taishou Mansion one by one, and issued Wang An a bronze medal to Wang An, asking Wang An to go to Weiyang Palace Dongque to register. Wang An followed the officials to the east gate of Weiyang Palace, that is, the east gate, where all conscripts had to register, and then the court would send someone to inform them when the exam would take.

After Wang An came out, he saluted and thanked the little official: "There is a hard run for Shangguan to run this trip in the Xia, the weather is getting colder, this money is not much, and it also represents a little heart in the Xia, please Shangguan take it to buy wine to warm up your body." As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag and handed it to the little official, who contained twenty gold judgments in the cloth bag, and the little official was not polite, and reached out to take it and stuffed it into his arms.

Back at the inn, Wang An looked at the itinerary arranged for him by the eldest girl, and on the first day he met Wang An's maternal grandfather, Wang Xian, the Marquis of Yichun, who lived near the Zhangcheng Gate, not far from the Anmen. The next day, I met Chengdu Hou, who lived in Qili, and it was troublesome to enter the city through the straight city gate and walk through the street.

The next day, Wang An took Kong Xun to meet his grandfather Wang Xian. Wang Xian has neither the talent of the first generation of Yichun Marquis Wang Xun, nor the credit of the second generation of Yichun Marquis Wang Tan, so Wang Xian only has a knighthood but no official position, and he is really inconspicuous in Chang'an, which is full of nobles, which is also the reason why Wang Xian moved to live outside the city. When he came to the door of the Hou Mansion, Wang An felt that the Hou of Yichun could not feel the momentum of the Hou Mansion except for the regulations of the Hou Mansion. The most obvious thing is that the subordinates of the Hou Mansion are lifeless, and when Wang An got off the horse, he didn't come up to lead the horse, but just watched there.

It wasn't until Wang An walked up the steps that the two got up and saluted. Wang An said to them: "Go in and report, grandson Wang An, on the order of his mother, come to visit his grandfather!" ”

One hurriedly went in Tongbing, and the other saluted again and again: "The letter of the new capital Hou has arrived a long time ago, and the Hou and his wife have been looking forward to the arrival of their grandson, so that the little ones pay more attention, the little ones didn't come to the left, and the right ones didn't come, but I didn't expect to come today." Kong Xun took out a small piece of gold and threw it to him, and then he went down to tie the horse happily. After a while, a group of people ran out of the room, helping to carry things. When I came to the front hall, I saw a large group of relatives sitting on both sides, and an old couple sitting on the top.

Wang An stepped forward and knelt down to pay respects: "Grandson Wang An visits his grandfather and grandmother." The old man asked Wang An to step forward, looked at it carefully, cried bitterly, and everyone persuaded him to stop crying, and then introduced Wang An to his mother Wang's brothers and sisters, as well as their children, anyway, Wang An didn't remember any of them.

After the meeting, Wang An took out a box from his sleeve, and Wang An now realized why he had to make such wide sleeves, it was really good to hide things. Presented to Wang Xian: "I heard that my grandfather is not in good health, this is the old ginseng that my father bought from a Liaodong merchant to replenish my grandfather's body. Wang An felt a lot of eyes staring at him, very uncomfortable. Wang An ordered someone to bring the box in: "This is some gifts from my mother to you, and I will distribute them by my grandmother later, this is a gift list." Kong Xun handed a silk book to Wang An, who presented it to his grandmother. Wang An felt uncomfortable again.

After lunch, Wang An hurriedly said goodbye on the grounds that he needed to prepare for the exam.

Not far from the inn, I found that there were a lot of carriages and ox carts parked at the door, the eldest girl stood at the door and looked, and when she saw Wang An coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward: "Chengdu Hou sent someone here." ”

Wang An hurriedly walked into the inn, a middle-aged man stood up and saluted: "Under is the chief steward of the Chengdu Hou Mansion, Chengdu Hou knows that the new capital Hou has always been thrifty, presumably Lang Jun has no one to take care of it in Chang'an, so he specially ordered to send Lang Jun eight maidservants, four cooks, a carriage, four boxes of change of clothes, two boxes of property, and three carts of various ingredients." This is a gift list, please take a look at it. Kong Xun took the gift slip and handed it to Wang An.

Wang An said: "It's a good time in this inn, take this maidservant, cook, and groom back." ”

The chief steward replied: "The Marquis of Chengdu has handed over their deeds of sale to Lang Jun, and what to do with Lang Jun is up to him." The task assigned by the prince has been completed, and he needs to go back to restore his life and say goodbye. ”

Everyone looked at Wang An, and Wang An said, "Let's try the chef's skills first, don't waste it." ”
